It's time for me to stand up And shake the color back into my skin (Bleh!) For what dind't kill me Has only made me, stronger And what is left to fear When you realize the one to fear Is on our side The king is in control! The king is in control! The king is in control So wake up and shed your shadows The king is in control So wake up and shed your shadows This life is not our own And the hours are running short (And the hours are running short) So pull the armor of light Up over your chest (Up over your chest) For his son did not come To bring peace but a sword For his son did not come To bring peace but a sword The king is in control So wake up and shed your shadows The king is in control So wake aup and shed your shadows
